What music do you listen to?

[HalationEffect]

Even though it so isn't the kind of music I normally listen to, I find myself really liking Grinder's Blues by Poets of the Fall.

I discovered it while playing Rochard (it's part of the game's soundtrack), and I just can't get it out of my head - so damn catchy!

Bonjour à toutes et à tous,

Mon groupe fétiche est Toto qui pour moi reste un des meilleurs à ce jour :

Toto? You mean the band behind "Africa" and "Love Isn't Always on Time"(both good songs)? Now that's old school there. (Not that ther is anything wrong with that. I'm a bit like that myself, though with heavier bands like KISS and Black Sabbath).

I think the lyrics of this song are amazing, and I like the upbeat tempo of ska:

Hello bsniadajewski,

Toto has not only "Africa" and "Love Is not Always on time" in its registry. Instrumentally and vocally, I think this is really art and top level.

Now, there are other band I listen to regularly, for example:
Deep Purple Judapriest, satriani, Iron Maiden, AC DC, Gary Moore among many others but this is a completely different course ...

What I like about Toto is that it is able to play hard, blues, walks, jazz, etc ... They are complete in my eyes. That's why I love them so much.

Cool! and Bienvenue

Hello,

thank you bsniadajewski

[bsniadajewski]

Avec plaisir! (or would "de rien" work as well? I'm not a French speaker, though I know a few words here and there)

I like ska! I'm currently listening to Five Alarm Funk. You can find my last DOT fm under the username unheeding0. I would post a link but I need two more posts, hence I'm posting so I can post my workaround in another thread! Apparently file names are links. :P

Ok folks, what kind of music/bands do you listen to? (it's in the title...)

During the evenings I mainly listen to Planet Rock, not on-line but on DAB here in the UK.

[aspats55]

hello, I like metal , trance, rock music very much;
I use Audacious to listen to my mp3 files

[Achaean]

Metallica, Manowar and such things.

[lesleepyfox]

I like mumford and sons a lot, and the civil wars, the black keys have an interesting sound too. But I'm never really music crazy, I think it's nice to listen to that's kind of it.

Any music will do.

I doubt anyone looks at this thread, but as a musician and someone who can't live without music I have to contribute lol!

I'm a classical pianist so naturally I like classical music, but I'm fussy. I can't stand most things written between the mid 1600s and mid 1800s; before or after that is great, particularly 'contemporary classical' music (I hate having to label it, but some examples are Messiaen, Steve Reich, John Adams, Ligeti...)
I don't like the texture of most orchestral music, but percussion orchestras/ensembles are ok cause I'm obsessed with percussion.
Aside from classical, I love metal - particularly progressive metal - but I'm fussy about that too. I can't stand clean vocals or the kind of vocals in 'early' metal like metallica...yeah, I'm hard to please.
I'm much more likely to enjoy music if no singing/vocals are involved in it; that applies to ALL genres (opera, ugh!)
Funny thing is I'm a singer myself. I just don't like listening to it.
